How do you know that the list wouldn't have been longer otherwise?

What are you trying to say exactly?

This response encapsulates my feelings perfectly:

Why mac mini instead of something like a raspberry pi? Aren't thede claw things delegating inference to OpenAI, Antropic etc.?

I only have one Apple devices (an iPad) but from what I seen the subscription is popular on it. I wanted to use Infuse, a video player, for my Jellyfin server but the lifetime price was $100 or a $2/month subscription. Also was interested in Panels, a comic book reader, for my Komga server. Panels was more reasonably priced ($20 for all updates to the current major version) but it also a subscription tier at $1.5/month.

Does the relay not have to have a publicly accessible IP address?

Edit: My understanding of network terminologies is weak. But I assumed that the relay server would have to not be behind a CGNAT.

This isn't true. They were able to pressure yuzu instead because of fixes for the leaked version of the TOTK ROM.

Not that I care about it but I'm sure you are also violating some terms of service by using NewPipe

Is there a way to get this as a cbz file or something similar?

Can an American please help me comprehend how much power a mayor has? I am supposing a NYC mayor would be more influential than that of a less important city. But I still don't understand how that would make an appointment like this significant.

Why does OpenAI have a separate model for coding (Codex) but Anthropic uses the same model for chatbots and coding?

What does your writing workflow look like? More than half of the post looks straight up generated by AI.

Crypto hasn't really passed. It's just not talked about on HN anymore. It is still a massive industry but they have dropped the rhetoric of democratising banking and instead let you use cryptocurrency to do things like betting on US invading Venezuela and so on.

AAA games have been having really bad performance issues for the last few years while not looking much better. If you wanna game in 8K you are gonna need something like a NASA supercomputer.

Are you sure all this is really necessary? I just use round sync to copy over the camera and whatsapp media folders over ssh/sftp to my SBC. Then once every several months I delete the files from these foldes which exceed a given mtime (using find in termux).

Tailscale has some integration with Mullvad. If you have a Mullvad subscription you can use their servers as exit nodes without dropping your Tailscale connection: https://tailscale.com/kb/1258/mullvad-exit-nodes

Outside of the particular combination of Mullvad and Tailscale I don't think there is any other way apart from switching between the two.

It's probably similar to how the extremely pro-AI people started generating Studio Ghibli-style images in droves. It's sort of a disrespectful co-opting.

Line count also becomes less useful of a metric because LLM generated code tends to be unnecessarily verbose.
